Very soon Sania Mirza would not be remembered only for her amazing tennis skills as she is turning into an entrepreneur. Her first business venture - Ristretto Coffee Shop, claimed to be the biggest-ever coffee cafe in Hyderabad, is set for a launch on the eve of Christmas.

SANIA MIRZA is planning to launch the chain of coffee shops on December 25 before she leaves for Australian Open tournament, to be played at Melbourne in January next year. Sania's father Imran said that the official launch would probably be held in January. "We are yet to finalise the date,” he was quoted as saying by India Today.

After Hyderabad, more branches would be opened at Vishakapatnam and different parts of South India and then in Mumbai. Imran refused to give details about the business partners, but it was revealed that Hyderabad-based businessman Seshu Reddy, who is also close to her family, is her business partner.

Apart from this, Mirza also has decided to promote tennis through her dream project Sania Mirza Tennis Academy. The Academy is under progress near Chilkur on the outskirts of Hyderabad and is going to materialize in a short period. Tennis is her favorite sport and bought her name and fame in the world and she wants the young talent in the country to emulate her.
